The NZD/JPY is trading slightly lower at around 91.23. It seems the firm grip buyers had over the market is dwindling, yet the pair doggedly persists above crucial Simple Moving Averages (SMAs). Market watchers should eye the short-term trajectory of the NZD/JPY for any potential shifts that could give sellers the upper hand. Specifically, if bears breach the 20-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 91.00.

Upon evaluating the broader landscape, the NZD/JPY is currently hovering above its key Simple Moving Averages (SMAs), reflecting continued buying pressure thereby sustaining the long-term uptrend. However, the pair closely challenges the 20-day SMA, suggesting potential for further downward movements if this level doesn’t hold. Moreover, the pair maintaining a stance above the 100 and 200-day SMAs reinforces a long-term bullish view.
